She's known for her steely expressions and infamous serious pout with fans often complaining about her unfriendly demeanour.

But Victoria Beckham has often hit back at her critics, insisting it's just the way she looks, while she's often tried to demonstrate her sense of humour.

And that was certainly the case on Friday when she stepped out for a spot of shopping in New York daring to give a glimpse of a smirk.

You call that a smile? Victoria Beckham pokes fun of herself as she shows signs of a smirk while out shopping in New York on Friday

The 39-year-old Spice Girls star quite literally swung into shopping mode on Friday afternoon as she hit the shops in a chic feminine black frock showing off her legs in all their glory.

And as soon as she saw photos of herself from the trip she couldn't wait to share an image of herself cracking her famous pout and giving into a small smile.

She posted the picture on her Twitter page and had jokingly written in block white letters over it: 'Look, I'm smiling!'

Clearly in a jovial mood, Beckham wrote next to the picture: 'Sun is shining! Fun day working in New York! x vb.'

Wearing a chic feminine black frock for the outing she looked content and relaxed as she walked around the Meatpacking district.

The classic dress with the A-line cut swung as she strutted her stuff across the pavement while of course wearing a pair of high heels in a cream colour.

Victoria wore her hair down and curly and covered her eyes with some oversized shades to complete her typical look.

It seems she was enjoying walking around in the sunshine after a more dismal day on Thursday.

She tweeted her fans with a picture of her rainy hotel window: 'Happy Thursday fashion bunnies!!!rainy day in NY!!! X Vb.'

As immaculate as ever: Just a day earlier Victoria had tweeted her online fans about what a rainy day in New York it was, but the sun was certainly shining on Friday

It seems that Victoria has undergone somewhat of a fashion transformation of late.

The 39-year-old fashion designer stepped out in New York on Thursday in a blouse that revealed her chest and a bright purple skirt.

Victoria showed off her modest cleavage in the sepia coloured blouse, from her label, boasting black cuffs and a collar.

The revealing top meant that Victoria was unable to wear a bra and was in danger of flashing her modesty.

She teamed the top with a vibrant skirt, also from her own collection, showing off a slit up to the mid-section of her thigh.

The mother-of-four finished off her look with a pair of thin rimmed aviator sunglasses.

Her flurry of colour comes just a day after Victoria arrived into the Big Apple, wearing a pair of bright orange trousers.

Victoria strutted through the airport in a pair of extremely long orange trousers which swamped her tiny frame.

The former Spice Girl teamed the bright pantaloons perfectly with a long black coat and a crisp white blouse.

She also accessorised the outfit well with a pair of rather high platform wedges and hid her eyes behind large sunglasses.

Traveling light Victoria carried no luggage with her as she teetered through the airport without her usual main accessory on her arm, daughter Harper.

Victoria has had a busy few weeks globe trotting between her London home and Paris, where husband David plays.

According the Daily Mirror, the Spice Girls have axed plans to go on tour in 2014 because Victoria reportedly refused to join them.

The group had reportedly been 'plotting' a string of huge final farewell shows next year, but after Victoria refused to take part, the remaining band members - Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Mel C, and Emma Bunton - decided to scrap their plans following discussions last week amid concerns ticket and merchandise sales would struggle if the entire quintet weren't involved.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: 'Led by Geri, the girls had been plotting a world tour as a four-piece band, culminating in a final night at Wembley Stadium.
